So I thought I'd jump on the bandwagon. This is my first time building an AR, so thanks a bunch to the New England Armory guys and the rest of the folks who were at the build party a couple weeks ago. Here's the parts list:

Ares Armor 80% Lower Receiver; Stripped Anderson Flat-Top Upper Receiver; Sniper Gray Cerakote job from Northeast Arms; Anderson Mil-Spec Lower Parts Kit; ALG Defense Advanced Combat Trigger; Strike Industries Forward Assist; Group Buy NES Dust cover kit; Bravo Company Gunfighter Charging Handle Mod 4; Ares Armor TiB Coated Bolt Carrier Group; Mission First Tactical Battlelink Minimalist Stock (Mil-Spec); Mils-Spec Buffer Tube, Buffer, Spring, Castle Nut and Plate; Green Mountain 18” Fluted Barrel; ALG Defense 15” Ergonomic M-Lok Handguard v2; Bravo Company Low Profile Gas Block; Rifle Length Gas Tube; Primary Weapons Systems (PWS) FSC556 Muzzle Break; Vortex Viper Cantilever Mount; Vortex Viper PST 1-4x24 Scope; Vortex SwitchView Throw Lever

And now for the pics:

nice work on the load with those 77s. it took me a little trial and erra to find a nice sweet spot with RL15
 
She looks sweet. Must of had a shit evil grin when you shot her for the first time.

Indeed!

Still lusting after that hand guard

Loving it! And thanks so much for all your help!

I used the same recipe that I worked up for Sierras. The Noslers are not quite as tight, but I've been pretty happy with them.
